Erector Set Bi- Plane, w/ Clockwork Motor and Race Car, Cabin Fever Model Engineering Show, York PA, 4-2015
A nice use of an Erector Set. A 3 engine biplane was made, the propellers being driven by an old wind up clock works. One propeller is powered and the others run off a pulley and belt arrangement.
The car, a really nice use of curved Erector pieces to give a framework body to an old race car. It has a model airplane engine in it, driving a set of rear gears. It has steel Erector Set wheels.
